✨ prm_clear_co...ss_flags_old(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the prm_clear_co...ss_flags_old(9) page 💅 yes that's the manual name, yes it's a mouthful, no we're not abbreviating it, and yes it's the Kernel API Manual section 9. buckle up 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

prm_clear_context_loss_flags_old — clears the context loss flags, but like… the old API version 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void prm_clear_context_loss_flags_old (u8 part , s16 inst , u16 idx );

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. she takes three args and gives you nothing back, which honestly is main character energy 🔥

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• part — the PRM partition ID. like, for example OMAP4430_PRM_PARTITION. it's a u8 btw, keep that in mind 👀
• inst — the PRM instance offset, e.g. OMAP4430_PRM_MPU_INST. this one's an s16 🍓
• idx — the CONTEXT register offset. u16, no cap 💜

three little values, one big job. iykyk 🌈

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does she actually do?? she clears the hardware context loss bits for whichever module you point at with (part, inst, idx) — that trio is literally the module's whole identity, it's giving "name, rank, and serial number" 😭

No return value. none. zero. void. she does the thing and she leaves, iconic behavior fr fr 👑

XXX — ⚠️ Deprecated!! ⚠️ bestie listen to me. callers need to use a less-SoC-dependent way to identify hardware IP blocks. this one's on the way out, do not build your whole personality on it 💀
